[Apiman-dev] SOAP support in apiman

I'd like to reboot the discussion around SOAP support in apiman. Originally I was thinking we could implement it without parsing the full message. I even have some code for doing this. However, after thinking about it some more (and after some discussion about soapaction vs. resource path in a separate jira) I'm thinking we simply have an option that will parse the entire soap message upfront *as an option*. I'd like any opinions anyone might have on this matter. :) The idea would be to handle the soap message in a java-standard fashion (jax-ws, javax.xml.soap, SAAJ, etc). The resulting soap message would be available to policies as part of the policy context, and it could be processed however the policy wants. When proxying to the back-end, the (possibly modified) soap message will be serialized to a string and written to the back-end API. Thoughts? Question for @Keith primarily: do you have any advice/code that efficiently parses a soap message? And is there someone you've worked with that has a lot of SOAP experience who could perhaps chime in some expertise? -Eric
